HDPE plastic barrel

Corrosion-proof, lightweight, food-safe

Blow-moulded from virgin or food-grade HDPE resin, these barrels resist the corrosive attack that steel drums are prone to, making them a fit for acids, food ingredients and pharma-grade liquids. Wall thickness is tuned by capacity to hold shape under stacking loads.

  • Natural (translucent) or UV-stabilised colours
  • Wide-mouth (open-top) and narrow-mouth (closed-top) styles
  • Tamper-evident cap options
  • UN 1H1/1H2 certified SKUs for regulated cargo
